Mate, Hate, or Date TWO

[Mia King]

Best mate

“Now that’s some bullshit. He just runs around running his mouth all the damn time. And he’s weirdly invested in our love lives? Wild.”

[Ivy Lennox]

Best mate

“Maybe it’s his way of deflecting from the rumors about him and Professor Chandler. Don’t you think her daughter has the slightest hint of auburn in her hair?”

[Mia King]

Best mate

“Oh that’s definitely his kid. You can’t convince me otherwise. But at the same time, ew. Couldn’t be me, that’s for damn sure.”

[Ivy Lennox]

Best mate

“Of course, I didn’t want to outright say it, trying to be tactful about it just in case he overhears us.” Pulls along. “I honestly don’t get it. Professor Chandler is ugly and she dated hot Quidditch players in the past. What would compel her to do such a thing?”

[Mia King]

Best mate

Looks around. “He does just randomly show up doesn’t he?” She laughs. “Oh my gods, yes. I don’t get the boys who talk about how hot she is because I just don’t see it. And why would anyone want him? He’s so fucking weird.”

[Ivy Lennox]

Best mate

“Even she doesn’t actually seem to want him. Why else would she be so sketchy about the whole situation?”

[Mia King]

Best mate

“Right? Like, Merlin, just tell the man to get lost then if it means that much to you. I just don’t get it. I heard that he and Professor Walker had a thing at one point, too, but that could just be garbage my brother heard.”

[Ivy Lennox]

Best mate

“That’s not too far fetched. My dad says she’s a criminal and shouldn’t be teaching children, but hiring nutjobs is what Hogwarts does best.”

[Mia King]

Best mate

“I heard she killed someone’s mom. The little brat who told me wouldn’t spill who.” Looks around and whispers, “I think McGonagall needs to retire. Old bat has been hiring crazy people and drunks alike. Hogwarts has really gone to shit.”

[Ivy Lennox]

Best mate

"It's time, right? This school needs a change, but it probably won't happen while we're here. I can't wait to get out."

[Mia King]

Best mate

“Yeah it’s been like, what, forty years or something? Too long for a witch who was already past her prime. I know what you mean, but I’m also dreading it. Camilla and Darius were married within months of them graduating. I have no idea how I’m going to get out of that.”

[Ivy Lennox]

Best mate

"That's so old fashioned, Mia. I can't believe your family is acting like we're in the eighteen-hundreds." Pulls her close. "Let's run away after graduation. They can't take you away from me if they can't find you."

[Mia King]

Best mate

“I’ve never known a family more obsessed with blood purity.” She rolls her eyes. “Oh, you know I am so down. I wonder how I can get my share of my inheritance if they disown me. Maybe I’ll steal it. Ha! It’s not like they’ll miss it.”

[Ivy Lennox]

Best mate

“I’ll share mine with you. I don't have to split my dad’s wealth with anyone. Being an only child has its advantages.”

[Mia King]

Best mate

Loops her arm with hers. “Where should we go? Paris? Italy?”
